DoD/VA iEHR & HIE Summit

A non-partisan educational and training Summit designed as a “Town Hall” full spectrum view towards the DoD & VA’s efforts at iEHRs and Federal HIE initiatives. The forum is created to encourage a real, pragmatic level of discussion and debate amongst all in attendance.

Our goal is to bring together leaders from across the Armed Services & Government Agencies and the Industry and Academic leaders that can help them forge many of the HIT solutions necessary to achieve their respective “next –steps”. Actionable take aways for today, tomorrow, and the future will drive the discussions.

DSI is a premier non-partisan Veteran Owned Small Business designed to assist in advancing the mission critical goals of the United States' Military and Government. Through our high level educational and training summits, and symposiums we are able to reach across all offices and departments in a fair and balanced manner. We bring together the mission relevant representatives in our neutral forums in order to foster the necessary discussions and debates to help them achieve efficient and effective mission success. In order to maintain our neutrality, we receive no funding or investment for operating costs from any outside organization, group, or individual.

ALL DSI events support the 501c3 nonprofit Wounded Warrior Project through our direct charitable donations.
